Kingdom Come: Deliverance - Dungeons not Dragons

Sounds great, I have War of the Roses, but that is M/P and its not really for me,

some of the voice acting sounds awful, spend some money on voice talent.

Brian Blessed!

btw, is that in game footage in the video?, if so the game seems very advanced.
 
The alpha release comes out this Wednesday - PC only, and just a small area with some NPCs and a few small quests. They've raised over $2 million now, and setup their own motion capture studio in-house. :cool:
 
I am not surpised. Check the T-shirt he was wearing in the last video update:



(fullscreen in HD to read the small print)

He's one of the names gamergaters come out with as "game devs who support gamergate" and unlike most of them who are 4channers with an XBL dev account or something, he is actually a game dev. (There are vanishingly few of them so I ended up making a list.)

What's the "#BASED" thing about then? I googled it but couldn't find anything - is it just an acronym of some of the stuff on the shirt?
 
I'm a few hours in. Still on-rails with the story but am enjoying it so far. Very immersive setting and while the story so far is basic (you killed my father, prepare to die!), it feels very grounded. I'm just a peasant, but I've got swept up in chaotic events. Politcis of knobber boss come through only vaguely as a blokey approach to the characterisation of the female characters so far, but nothing too offputting.

Looks gorgeous, especially the woods. Night is DARK. The insides of buildings are GLOOMY. No sputtering torches making cinematic effects everywhere. Realistic and grimy.

Save system is fucking awful. Autosave at plot points and (bed) sleeping, otherwise you need (expensive) Saviour Schnapps to manually save. I get that they want to prevent savescumming, but it's just completely broken if you can only play in short sessions. PATCH NOW PLS.
 
I think I'm suffering from not owning a high spec gaming rig, the quality is pretty low on my Windows partitioned iMac. The dialogue bits remind me a lot of LA Noire, with awkward pauses while people wobble around slightly after speaking.
 
I went a-robbing at this guy's house outside of town in the moonlight. Stripped down to my undies so I'd make no noise. Picked the locks on all his chests and pocketed a bunch of high-class clothing and a tasty sword. Then the moon clouded over and it got proper dark. Accidentally stumbled over his dog in the yard, who barked and barked and woke the fella up. I was over-encumbered with all his stuff I'd nicked and couldn't put my armour back on while in combat. I didn't want this to end in murder, so we traded unarmed blows for 5 minutes in the woods, in the pitch black of night. He got me right down to a few shreds of health before I managed to land a deciding blow and he ran off. My vision was completely bloodied and I was swaying around all over the place. So I necked a bottle of schnapps (that I'd just stolen off him) to give myself a temporary boost to energy and stamina, got out a flaming torch and staggered out of the woods onto the path home, wavering form side to side, belching from the booze and groaning in pain from the beating. Finally found my place, washed the blood off in the trough outside, stuffed some bread in my face, collapsed in bed and slept for 10 hours. Now it's gone midday and I've got a hangover, but my storage chest is bulging with finery worth 10x more than my entire wealth so far. I'll give the loot a few days to cool off and then sell it in the next town over (locals will recognise it as stolen).

This is a great game :D
 
I just couldn't bring myself to give that cnut any of my money by buying the game, when it came down to it.

I backed it on Kickstarter before any of that came around :-/

It's coming to GOG soon, so a DRM-free hacked version will soon be available for stealing :)
 
this is on the steam sale for less than £20 ( i think). im quite enjoying it - impressive level detail and historical realism - but there are a lot of long cut scenes and dialogue - im hoping that gets less as you get more into the gameplay.
